He does work in mysterious ways.

Did a little yard cleaning today

Thinking on going this route. I'm leaning to hotrod/lakester and ditch the sitting on the ground. This route solves alot of problems I'm working with and may end up looking the best. I don't have a front end or rear end for this so it is sittin on my 52 front and rear just to work out ride height so I can do some work on it. Right now it is 115" center to center on the wheels I could go 1/4 elip, push the front out 6" more and use to front end. I have a chevy 350 and th400 that I can set in it and start building around that.

Now this is what we want to hear! Plot a course for goodtimes Mr.Sulu

 

[rex1927]

Sounds like you have a good plan.Nice project

 

[GJunktionMike]

After jocking the power plant around I'm setting it where it's at. Next big thing is floor tin, I'm thinking on putting it under the 1".

I like the aggressive tread on the tires, kinda reminds me of a sand drag car!

 

[GJunktionMike]

Thinking about quarter ellipticals, and no they won't stay like this I still have to add bailing wire and rebar. Raises the front up about 4", not sure if this is the look I want.

Could be cool if you bolt the quarter elipticals on but then keep the C clamps on there to amke it look like that's what is holding them on And you could make your headlight stand on them too

I've always liked the look of snow/mud tires on stuff too.

No OPP for a week or two

Rolled the nash back in the garage, came up with some parts back in April but no time to work on it. Going to work on the front end first to see where it ends up.

 

[bkvail]

darn, guess that means no work on the Diamond T

 

[earthman]

excellent

 

[GJunktionMike]

Got a plan.

 

[rex1927]

Man,that is cool!
I like it.[dr

 

[Dirtyrat]

Definitely a great look! Always look forward to progress on your projects Mike!

 

[Torchie]

I dig the front end set up Mike. Very smart use of that style of axle.
Not sure in regards to the light location though. Won't that vibrate too much?

From what i can see you are going with one quarter elliptic on the right side.

 

[BlueNorther]

if you made a pivoting mount on the rear of the quarter elliptic, you could add an adjusting bolt to the top side and have infinitely adjustable ride height.

look at how the speedway elliptical springs mount.
